Fasıl
The fasıl is a suite in Ottoman classical music. It is similar to the Arabic nawba and waslah.
A classical fasıl generally includes movements such as taksim, peşrev, kâr, beste, , yürük semâ'î, gazel, şarkı and saz semâ'î, played continuously without interludes and interconnected through arrangements.[1]
A modern fasıl typically includes movements such as taksim, peşrev, şarkı (ağır aksak), yürük semâ'î, , taksim, şarkı (a few with increasing tempo) and saz semâ'î.
Traditional Fasıl (both classical and modern) is a musical act distinct from the performance of "oriental" or "arabesque" pop and folk songs found at meyhanes and taverns, which have come to be sometimes referred by the same name.
